@coriander I couldn't make that an option because it would have won unanimously

@wallhackio Anyway the answer depends on framing because, culinarily, they are vegetables but taxonomically they are their own thing

@wallhackio It's a vegetable culinarily, which is the only context I'm aware of where "vegetable" is a coherent term

@wallhackio ok technically vegetal is a culinary category so shrooms could be vegetal

@wallhackio like a tomato is a fruit and also vegetal

@cam @wallhackio canning companies did make up the word 'vegetable' to sell more vegetal

I cannot emphasize how much I am not making this up

@Breakfast @cam @wallhackio Please elaborate :psyduck: This is the first time that I hear the word "vegetal"
